BAKER CITY – It has been brought to the Baker City Police Departments attention that citizens are being target with another scam. If you receive an email like the one below please do not respond to it, do not click on the link and provide any personal information, this is a scam.

When it comes to issuing citations, the Baker City Police will pull you over using a police vehicle equipped with lights and a siren and a uniformed officer will issue you a written citation for speeding with directions to follow for fine payment and court. The department will never email you a notice of a traffic violation and ask you to pay the fine online.
